Answer:

The concentration is [-1 + sqrt(1+0.11t)]/0.1542 M

Explanation:

Let the concentration of CH3CHO after selected reaction times be y

Rate = Ky^2 = change in concentration of CH3CHO/time

K = 0.0771 M^-1 s^-1

Change in concentration of CH3CHO = 0.358 - y

0.0771y^2 = 0.358-y/t

0.0771ty^2 = 0.358 - y

0.0771ty^2 + y - 0.358 = 0

The value of y must be positive and is obtained in terms of t using the quadratic formula

y = [-1 + sqrt(1^2 -4(0.0771t)(-0.358)]/2(0.0771) = [-1 + sqrt(1+0.11t)]/0.1542 M

A central atom has two lone pairs on opposite sides and four single bonds. What is the molecule geometry of the result?
ryzh [129]

The molecular geometry is square planar.

According to the Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory (VSEPR), the shape of a molecule is determined by the number of valence electrons surrounding the outermost shell of the central atom in the molecule.

In this case, the expected geometry based on VSEPR theory is octahedral. However, the lone pairs on opposite sides of the four single bonds leads to a square planar molecular geometry.

HClO4+P4O10=H3PO4+Cl2O7 how do you balance this?
Tom [10]

12 HClO₄ + 1 P₄O₁₀ → 4 H₃PO₄ + 6 Cl₂O₇

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Balance by the conservation of atoms.

Assign coefficient <em>1 </em>to the species with the largest number of elements and atoms. H₃PO₄ contains three elements. Each of its molecule contains eight atoms, that's two more than the six atoms in a HClO₄ molecule. Start by assigning H₃PO₄ a coefficient of <em>1</em>.

? HClO₄ + ? P₄O₁₀ → <em>1</em> H₃PO₄ + ? Cl₂O₇

There are now three H atoms, one P atom on the product side. H₃PO₄ is the only product that contains H and P atoms. As a result, there should be the same number of H and P atoms on the reactant side.

  • Among all reactants, only HClO₄ contains H atoms. Each HClO₄ molecule contains one H atom. Three H atoms correspond to three HClO₄ molecule.
  • Among all reactants, only P₄O₁₀ contains P atoms. Each P₄O₁₀ molecule contains four P atoms. One P atom corresponds to 1/4 of a P₄O₁₀ molecule.

Thus

<em>3</em> HClO₄ + <em>1/4</em> P₄O₁₀ → <em>1</em> H₃PO₄ + ? Cl₂O₇

There are three Cl atoms in three HClO₄ molecules. HClO₄ is the only species that contains Cl among all reactants. There are three Cl atoms on the reactant side and shall be the same number of Cl atoms on the product side.

  • Cl₂O₇ is the only molecule that contains Cl among the products. Each Cl₂O₇ molecule contains two Cl atoms. Three Cl atoms will correspond to 3/2 Cl₂O₇ molecules.

<em>3</em> HClO₄ + <em>1/4</em> P₄O₁₀ → <em>1</em> H₃PO₄ + <em>3/2</em> Cl₂O₇

Multiply both sides by the least common multiple of the denominators to eliminate the fraction. The least common multiple in this case is four.  

12 HClO₄ + 1 P₄O₁₀ → 4 H₃PO₄ + 6 Cl₂O₇

Calculate the mass in grams of 1.72×10^24 molecules of formaldehyde. The chemical formula for formaldehyde is CH2O.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: m= 85.8 g CH2O

Explanation: First step is convert the molecules of CH2O to moles using the Avogadro's Number.

1.72x10²⁴ molecules CH2O x 1 mole CH2O / 6.022x10²³ molecules CH2O

= 2.86 moles CH2O

Next is convert the moles of CH2O to mass using the molar mass of CH2O

2.86 moles CH2O x 30 g CH2O / 1 mole CH2O

= 85.8 g CH2O

Operations with units”: Determine the units of the answers to the following problems.
sammy [17]

Answer:

1)  km  2)  cm^  3)  no units (kg cancels) 4) g/cm^3  5)  g  6)  g°C

Explanation:

Like units will cancel ((m/km)*(km) = m

Non-cancelled units remain (ml)*(g/ml)*(°C) = g°C
